lovers (a painting by Charles Blackman)

eyes
downturned
hands
held loosely
with flowers
behind her back
darkness
between them

eyes
almost closed
hand
raised lightly
against her arm
light
falls on her cheek

It would be interesting to see what painters would come up with if you gave them that poem to paint - without telling them the source.
